Small Boy likes to read. When I sit on the living room floor to read, he will pull out a book for me to read to him. Usually it would be either 'Goodnight Moon' or 'Brown Bear'. Spot the Dog series plus Karen Katz books are also Small Boy's favourite books as he likes to open the flaps to see what lies beneath.
He enjoys the Usborne number rhymes and action rhymes that I borrow from the library too.
There was an Electricity book that he and Medium Boy pored over, plus an alphabet race car book that starts with A for Announcer [Medium Boy likes to read aloud the words 'Gentlemen, start your engines!' that the A for Announcer text has] and ends with Z for Zoom! Both boys pause at the M for Motor page to admire the engine and various moving parts. K for Kill Switch also gets their attention as there are speedometers and aldometers to count. The Husband is a big F1 Ferrari fan... so he directs their attention to the car's dashboard whenever all of us are in the car.
Medium Boy used to like to read too. Then he grew up a little bit, and discovered there is lots to explore outside of my lap. His favourite book now is 'Little Red Rocket Hood' with Disney Junior's Little Einsteins as the subplot characters. .... because.... the main character is a ROCKET, and rockets have propellars!
